One United Bank

OneUnited Bank is the largest Black-owned bank in the United States and the first Black-owned digital bank, founded in 1968 during the civil rights movement. Headquartered in Boston, Massachusetts, it operates branches in Boston, Los Angeles, and Miami, focusing on underserved urban communities. The bank aims to close the racial wealth gap by providing affordable financial services and promoting financial literacy.

Originally established as Unity Bank & Trust Company, OneUnited Bank has evolved into a Community Development Financial Institution (CDFI). It offers a wide range of banking services, including personal and business banking, online banking, and digital financial tools. The bank also emphasizes financial education through programs and workshops designed to empower individuals and families in building generational wealth.

OneUnited Bank is committed to fostering financial wellness in communities such as South Central Los Angeles, Compton, Liberty City in Miami, and Roxbury in Boston. With a mission centered on respect and dignity, the bank has financed nearly $1 billion in loans to support local businesses and homeowners, reinforcing its legacy of community development and activism.
